MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT
INDUSTRY STRUCTURE, DEVELOPMENTS AND OUTLOOK
Recent years have been encouraging for Indian equity investors. Falling inflation, near-zero interest ratesin the developed world and a change in the central government in May 2014 have come together to shakethe stock market out of its comatose state, attracting higher investments from domestic and foreigninvestors.
The year FY 17 saw the NDA take some bold steps to curb black money. The economic growth sloweddown in Q3 of FY 17 yet the overall economic growth in the last 3 years remains robust. India's GDP grew at7.1% in FY 17 largely aided by the strong consumption.
Indian Broking Industry is going through a changeover, stock brokers have started to move ahead fromconventional broking and are increasingly concentrating on other financial services.
During the year 2016-17, equity market average volumes (ADTO) were Rs. 4.07 tn, up 35.27% YoY. Cashmarket volumes were 83.94% higher to Rs. 201.50 bn. Within cash, delivery increased by 33% YoY to Rs.80.75 bn. Cash volumes were 84% higher than the average seen between FY 2012-14 and deliveryvolumes were 107% higher than the FY 2012-14 average. Within derivatives, futures volumes rose 25% YoY to Rs. 626.23 bn.
DII cash volumes increased 30.66% YoY, led by renewed interest in equity mutual funds from retail/HNIinvestors. The proportion of retail within cash volumes increased to 59.34% YoY while that of DII increasedto 9.69% YoY.
Average FIIs registered net inflows this year, after a year of net outflows. Factors like implementation ofGST, demontization and other bold moves by the government have lured foreign investors towards India.Even the number of demat accounts have shown significant improvements as compared to previous yearsdue to pick up in the stock market.
OPPORTUNITIES
We believe financial services industry in India has immense potential. The interest in the Indian economy isat an all-time high amongst the global investors.

corporate values like integrity and excellence. The company needs to leverage its brand to grow its businesses, build relationships and attract and retain talented individuals.
THREATS, RISKS AND CONCERNS
Credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk and operational risks are the major risks the company faces. Ittried to manage these risks professionally. Cut throat competition on brokerage and low volumes aredeterrent to progress of the Stock Broking Business.
The financial sector is affected by a variety of factors linked to domestic economic progress and globaldevelopments. Any economic event happening across the globe can have a direct or indirect impact on theCompany.
Risk exposure is monitored and controlled through a variety of separate but complementary financial,credit, operational, compliance and legal reporting systems. Risk management department analyses thisdata in conjunction with the company's risk management policies and takes appropriate action wherenecessary to minimize risk.
SEGMENT WISE / PRODUCT WISE PERFORMANCE
As the company is only in one line of business i.e. stock broking segment wise or product wise disclosure ofperformance is not required to be made.
OUTLOOK
The global macro-economic factors play a vital role in determining the path of the securities market acrossall the countries. In the current extremely interconnected world, the butterfly effect is visible every day. Theperformances of stock markets are heavily interlinked to the performances of the listed companies andbusiness expectations which are in turn linked to the economy. Therefore, it is vital to take look at theoutlook for the major economic regions to understand and predict the performance of stock markets.
FY 17 witnessed a series of high intensity events in different regions that had an adverse impact across the globe. Uncertainty over the health of leading European banks, low oil price, Brexit, political instability, slowdown in China, and slow pace of US recovery are some of the major events that had a negative impact on businesses. The dark shadows of the great recession in 2008 and 2009 are yet to be fully lifted and are expected to linger in 2017 as well. However, the growth in FY 18 is expected to come from government programs and monetary policies aimed to increase the aggregate demand. Therefore, the performancesof stock exchanges worldwide are expected to be mildly positive.
Your company is optimistic about the current financial year as the monsoons have been good and with theGST here it believes the Indian economy will perform better resulting in stock markets seeing new highs.
Company is also focusing on growth of Institutional Brokerage Business by building new strategy to caterto clients and add new clients. The overall Risk Reward ratio also looks favourable as the global liquidityinto the markets is robust. Hence with a better research and vigilance of the markets and improvingeconomic and corporate activities our outlook for the forthcoming year brings a hope of good business andreturns.
RISK MITIGATION
There have been geopolitical upheavals but they have not been able to make any significant impact uponthe capital markets. These tensions, of late, have been easing and this has resulted in further improvementin the global investment climate. The stock markets in India are not immune to the global developments.
